    Warning ! BI update 5.8.0.11 will corrupt your database and will lose alerts.

    Again. I don't appreciate the snark but whatever .. Obviously, I'll have to wait until whatever caused the Alerts to stop is fixed. It's not even related to .14, or as a previous poster said ".12" because it was working fine until 2 days ago and I updated to .14 on or around the 1st, 10 days ago.

    It stated NOTHING about "beta update."

    Warning ! BI update 5.8.0.11 will corrupt your database and will lose alerts.

    Auto-Update has never been ON. Looking at it right now, and it hasn't been changed, it says "NO automatic updates."

    Warning ! BI update 5.8.0.11 will corrupt your database and will lose alerts.

    Don't appreciate the snark! As to reverting, I also tried that and got "the service and console versions must match" although I have always clicked the "save the previous version" and there are none saved (not by BI Tools either). So that's broken too. As to the "wait before upgrading" .. we...

    Warning ! BI update 5.8.0.11 will corrupt your database and will lose alerts.

    5.8.0.14 just stopped all of my alerts so it's either NOT been fixed as of .12 or it's broken again.

    Warning ! BI update 5.8.0.11 will corrupt your database and will lose alerts.

    I just came back after being away for a couple of days. I apparently installed 5.8.0.14 on or around 11/1 because it prompted and I thought "why not." Two days ago, Alerts all stopped. Last day of alerts was 11/8. Just looked at 11/11 (started :52 ago and no new alerts still today. I tried...

    YALQ: Yet Another Layout Question

    Well .. don't know what happened yesterday morning. After futzing all day yesterday with trying to "fix" the problem I had with the layout and even trying to re-enter old .reg data (which screwed up two cameras that I originally had at different addresses and another which I previously had to...

    YALQ: Yet Another Layout Question

    Thanks but already tried that quite a lot. Not sure what happened. No one touched the computer during the night.

    YALQ: Yet Another Layout Question

    This morning, I went to my BI machine where I always have the console up and the layout is all screwed up. Usually, I have one large window with 4 other cameras stacked in smaller windows to the right (I believe it was either 1:5 or 1:6). I have made ZERO changes to anything in weeks and this...

    5.0.0.70 - Same Camera Appears Twice

    aaaaahhh .. Thank you! When I set up BI on this new computer, I had issues with one camera not recording at all. I deleted it (thought I did) and re-added it and it popped up again today after BI reboot with the new update.

    5.0.0.70 - Same Camera Appears Twice

    5.0.0.70 installed its update today and now in the live layout, the same camera shows up twice in my 1:5 layout but didn't before. I've made no changes to the setup after the update installed. I can't figure out how to remove the extra window but I would like to since it makes all of the other...

    Scrambled Video From One Camera

    .. and what's even weirder is that I went back and toggled all of the hardware acceleration options back ON just to try and figure out what I changed that fixed the issue and it is still working properly. I can only guess that the original BI.reg file was bad and toggling the hardware...

    Scrambled Video From One Camera

    Thanks everyone! With a combination of trying multiple pairs of configurations, it is (so far) back to working normally. Not sure what the magic combo was, but I'm leaving it alone. There weren't any H264/265 settings. It's just an inexpensive Foscam with 'HD' or VGA capabilities, but the video...

    Scrambled Video From One Camera

    I just had to replace my previous BI computer which had a cpu problem and installed BI5 on the new computer today. I imported my .reg file and all of my cameras came up fine except one. The video after a second or two comes up completely scrambled and I did not have this problem before. Although...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I did previously try the resistor and it didn't help, but maybe I didn't wire it properly. I'm willing to try again, but I just don't understand why everything I've tried still results in trouble. The new (working PK .. the previous power kit failed for some reason) power kit doesn't seem to...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I previously wrote about my troubles with a mechanical chime with LEDs (I know that LEDs aren't necessary, but my wife really likes the chimes with the LEDs that I bought when my previous 30 year-old chimes fused and I would like to get them to work) wired to my RCA DB2. I upped my transformer...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Well, just tried a 24V 40VA transformer and the chime LEDs on the chime are still flickering. I know this isn't technically a problem with the RCA but I also don't know if these LED chimes + the doorbell camera are just drawing too much juice for a 24V and I need to try a 30V. A little scared to...

    Sweet! LTS is releasing an ONVIF compatible doorbell with SD card slot and 940nm IR

    I had the same problem. Only mine would reboot over and over and almost always it was between midnight and 2-3am. And it would reboot loop about 6-8 times, dinging the chime each time, and then finally connect. It would did this at least 2-3 times for 2 weeks. Needless to say, I stopped that...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I bought this doorbell about 2 weeks ago and have nothing but trouble. The doorbell camera itself was MUCH easier to set up than the previous (I had the Nelly's DB1 version) and the image and the night vision are superior. The alerts (so far) seem more reliable and it has worked with BI...

    Sweet! LTS is releasing an ONVIF compatible doorbell with SD card slot and 940nm IR

    Today, I decided to try and figure out why my doorbell has stopped giving me push notifications and alerts when someone rings the doorbell. It stopped for no reason at all about a month ago. When I logged in to my Hik-Connect account, it showed "no devices" under device management. I then...

    Geovision GV-FER12203 doesn't play well with BlueIris

    Thanks! Makes sense. I will add that since the tweaks I made to my settings from this thread yesterday, and for the first time in a year I've had this camera, it has remained available in BI. Hopefully, that holds. I was about to sell it on fleaBay and move on to another. My only problem now is...

    Geovision GV-FER12203 doesn't play well with BlueIris

    I just saw this thread .. Just as an aside .. I too have the 12203 (for over a year now) and I have always had the same intermittent problem where BI will give me the "No Signal" all day long. I tweaked the settings and it seems to be holding for longer than I remember, but it's only been an...

    Sweet! LTS is releasing an ONVIF compatible doorbell with SD card slot and 940nm IR

    I have a motion light at my front door that turns on with motion (of course) but also when a car goes down my street at night. Even at the lowest setting on the motion light, it still turns on (I think it turns on with motion and when it senses light .. in this case, headlights from the street)...
